It also supports the nuclear disarmament mechanism.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi stated that even the mention on the possible use of nuclear weapons by a country is the basis for the imposition of preventive sanctions. During an online conversation with students from leading French universities, academics and the media, Zelensky noted that such rhetoric violates international agreements. He added that Russia is not the only one using nuclear threats. But it will be worse if it uses its nuclear capabilities – it can be a signal to others that this can be done.
“Therefore, I believe that there should be preventive sanctions. If a person talks about it in the media, if he says it publicly and threatens to use nuclear weapons in the case… Then it is not even interesting what this person says. In what case? Such ultimatums are complete This is an indication that any agreement on the non-use of nuclear weapons has already been discredited, “Zelensky said.
The first such discredit took place when Russia violated the Budapest Memorandum. It is now openly threatening nuclear weapons. Zelensky noted that Vladimir Putin is personally responsible for this.
“Because not everyone in Russia is in favor of using nuclear weapons against Ukraine or the world. I am sure of that. There are many people who support both Ukraine and the civilized way of resolving any military conflicts, peaceful settlement. But, unfortunately, through information policy, their percentage in Russia is getting smaller and smaller, “he said.
Zelensky also noted that he fully supports the nuclear disarmament mechanism.
“If we do not control the violation of international law by a nuclear state, it means that we do not control the future, even the possible use of a nuclear weapon. And if we can not do that, we need to raise the issue of abolishing the possibility use of certain weapons, regarding the availability of these weapons in a particular state. This is the only way out, “Zelensky stressed.
Before the start of the full-scale war, Zelensky also called on the West to impose sanctions to avoid this war. The partners did not do that, so Ukraine has been defending its land from the Russian occupiers for 77 days.
